Nope. I'm not going to feel bad about it because this was taken away from the Avs a while back...
But I definitely agree that the interference rules are a complete mess right now. We've gotten screwed on a couple of offsides reviews where they were determining if a foot might have been a centimeter off the ice, too. I kind of think they just need to ditch reviews again except for seeing if the puck crossed the line. The new reviews have certainly not cleared things up.

The Leafs have a huge lead over the next closest contender in the Atlantic, (Florida). Babcock's been mind ****ing with the Leafs for the past few weeks to play a better defensive game, (regardless of picking up points), and he finally broke them last week. He's exposed their weaknesses and he did it again tonight. The team is now infighting and talking about accountability, which has Babcock very proud.
It's been a tough month as a Leaf fan but I think I get the approach.
Either way, congrats on the win but don't think it will be this easy when they meet in the Stanley Cup Final.

To be fair, that was the most competitive game the Avs had played in the winning streak, and it probably wasn't close. The Leafs did a nice job of shutting down MacKinnon's line, which no one else seemed to be able to do. I think if they played a 7-game series right now, it probably ends 4-3.
So sure, I look forward to the rematch in the finals.
